Here are the slides which Sally and I used in our joint session with you this afternoon. We are very pleased to be in Luxembourg for the first time, and look forward to working with you again tomorrow. Joint keynote (534 downloads)

Here are the main slides from my morning workshop on 5th December. Making Learning Happen (573 downloads) . Here also are the slides from the afternoon workshop. Developing Effective Curricula (554 downloads) . I wish you all well in developing these ideas at Luxembourg, and hope to see you again before long. Thanks for making Sally and I so welcome throughout our visit.

The new QAA UK Quality Code is now published. For those thinking about Chapter B6 on assessment, I’ve made up a set of slides and a handout containing the eighteen ‘Indicators of Sound Practice’, which you can download here. QAA B6 slides (672 downloads)   QAA B6 handout (633 downloads)

Here are the main slides – including the odd prayer. I had to miss out most of the pictures to keep the size down to my web limit. You were a terrific audience to work with, and I wish you well with your work. NCT Tutors Conference (1047 downloads) . (Note: the other number on your labels was in case I had more time left over – but I always try not to overrun).

Here are our main slides. Grantham (535 downloads) You  were a smashing group to work with.

Using-peer-observation-to-enhance-teaching.pdf (457 downloads) Here’s a booklet which I developed with colleagues when I worked at Leeds Met some time ago.

Here are the main slides I used in my two workshops today. As I explained, there are some differences between what we did in the morning and the afternoon. Ideally, ask someone who was there at ‘the other’ session to talk you through those slides you didn’t see – they will learn by explaining. Enhancing Student Engagement (682 downloads) . Both groups were great to work with, thanks.

This table is about ‘assessment agency’ and compares some factors to consider when thinking about who assesses (lecturer, external examiner, peer, group, self). I’ve adapted the following table from one included in my submission for the 3rd edition of ‘Making Learning Happen’ (now with the publisher). Any suggested improvements gratefully received. Who assesses? (692 downloads)

Here are the main slides I used in our morning workshop on 10th October on ‘Designing good assessment questions’ (prefaced by the slides on the Curriculum Enrichment Project) Good assessment questions (600 downloads) . The slides are not always in the same order as we used them of course. As always, of course, the slides are just ‘the slides’. In many ways, these are the least important aspect of these sessions. It’s what we did, said, argued about and shared that are the most important aspects. Students who miss a lecture but then get the slides are never able to benefit as much as those who were there.
Here are the slides used in the afternoon workshop on 10th October on ‘Involving Students in their own assessment’ involving students (552 downloads) , and the ‘Assessment Agency Table’ as a word document Assessment agency table (518 downloads) . I would love to have had time to do a bit more on peer assessment, but the double-booking intervened. I will offer a further workshop entirely on peer assessment on a future visit.

Here are the slides I used in my session for Associate Lecturers Associate Lecturer slides (569 downloads) . I hope this helps you to enjoy your work with students all the more.
